The former president of the United States donald trump (2017-2021), after being found guilty of all charges this Thursday in the criminal trial against him in New York, attacked the process and described it as “by hand” and one “shame” and considered that voters will give him a “royal verdict” in the next elections.
“The trial was a rigged and a great shame. The real verdict will be given on November 5 by the people of the United States.”declared the Republican presidential candidate to the press at the doors of the courtroom, with a tired and serious expression, attacking the judge as before and crying out against alleged political persecution.
With a visible lack of energy, Trump assured that he will continue “struggling” and took the opportunity to launch some of his campaign themes: “We no longer have the same country, we have the disaster of (President Joe) Biden. “We are in decline, with millions of people sneaking in from prisons and mental institutions, terrorists taking over the country.”
Lawyers ask to invalidate trial
The defense of the former president trump On Thursday, he described the guilty verdict against his client as inadequate and requested a mistrial because it was based on the testimony of Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen, who objected in its entirety.
Lawyer Todd Blanche made brief statements in the courtroom moments after the verdict against the former president was announced and requested the annulment of the process, but the judge in the case, Juan Merchan, immediately dismissed the motion.
It will now be a few weeks until he is sentenced by the judge, during which time Trump would likely be released on bail, as he would be a first-time offender of a non-violent crime. Some sources anticipate that the sentence will be announced on July 11.
The tycoon could be sentenced with a sentence ranging from probation to four years in prison, a decision that is now in the hands of Judge Merchan.
